Caught in the middle (Youtuber love triangle fanfic)

6. Tell Me About Yourself

A/n Belle is Dan's sister who lives in Brighton with Jack but Wattpad won't let me edit the last chapter to put that in so yeah :)

Caspar's POV

After we had lunch we walked to the beach and we were stopped by a lot of fans on the way asking for pictures.  We sat down on the sand and I went to sit next to Erin.

"Hi, Erin." I said.

"Oh, hey, Caspar." Erin said turning around to face me.

"So, I've realised that we don't know that much about each other." Caspar said. "So I propose that we do a mini q and a?" I asked.

"Sounds good to me." Erin replied smiling. She was so beautiful . Caspar stop it and think of a question.

C: Okay, so what's your favourite food?

E: Pizza. With Ice-cream for dessert.

C: Pizza's my favourite too.

E: Favourite season?

C: Well I love South African summer and spending time with family on the beach at Christmas. So summer.

We carried on playing this game until we ran out of questions to ask each other. Jack, Finn, Joe, Alfie, Jim and I went in the sea. Marcus and Naomi left hand in hand for a walk along the beach. The others sat in the sun. Before Jack came running into the sea with us he wrapped his arm around Belle and kissed the top of her head. They are called 'the adorable couple of YouTube' for a reason. Belle smiled after Jack got up and ran into the sea and smiled at me when I was looking at her.

Dan's POV

Like I said in one of my videos 'Jealousy is one of my worst features.' (See GIF at top of the page)

Seeing Erin so happy with Caspar made me jealous. I don't know why. Erin and I are just friends but now I was sure that I wanted it to be more. I felt like I was ready to open up to Erin so I asked her...

"Erin? Can I speak to you for a minute?" I asked.

"Yeah sure." Erin replied and stood up and told the others we'll be back soon. We walked down the beach about until we got to a quiet area and sat on the rocks looking out onto the sea.

"I've been thinking about what you said this morning and I feel ready to talk about it." I said. Erin didn't say anything but smiled encouragingly.

"So since I was about 15 I didn't like the way I looked. I just thought it was normal, you know? Something that happens to everyone. So I didn't say anything to anyone. I thought it would get better but it got worse. I hated every inch of me. I didn't want to tell my parents about it. Even when Phil became my best friend I didn't want to tell him because I would hate to upset him or worry him." I said and Erin was looking straight at me.

"I still don't like the way I look but I feel since my overall confidence has increased I feel like my body confidence has grown too." I admitted with a small smile.

"That's good, right?" Erin said. "You're feeling more confident than a few months ago?"

"Yeah, definitely." I said truthfully.

"Look, there's so many good things about yourself. You're so caring, helpful, hiliarious, hot, you have beautiful eyes, wonderfully sarcastic and you are an amazing person." Erin said looking into my eyes at each word.

"You really see all that?" I asked in slight disbelief.

"Of course I do." Erin said.

I was taken aback by the  'beautiful eyes' and 'hot'. The thought of Erin thinking this made me smile. But she thought I was an amazing person. It felt good to have someone think of me as an amazing person.

"You know you showed me your wrist?" I asked unsure whether to bring it up.

"Yeah." Erin said.

"D you promise you'll never do it again?" I asked. The thought of Erin ever harming herself brought a wave of sadness over me, I have to be here for her. She stayed silent for a minute.

"I promise." She answered. I hugged her tightly and she squeezed back. We pulled away but I kept my arm around her shoulders and pulled her closer to my side.  We stayed silent but it wasn't awkward, it was the type of silence where you are just happy to be in each others company. I am finding it seriously difficult to keep my feelings hidden but I was thinking about something Phil told me years ago 'Girls are complicated, sometimes they are waiting for you to tell them your feelings. Take a risk.' I never needed this advice before now but now I was thinking about it and I thought I would tell Erin soon. Not yet, this moment was too perfect to ruin. Erin's phone started to ring. She gave me an apologetic look and answered her phone.

"Relax, Zoe. I'm with Dan. Okay, we'll meet you there." Erin said on the phone.

"They were wondering where we went and they will meet us back at the hotel. Then we're going out for dinner later. " Erin said turning to face me.

"Okay." I said simply. We walked off the beach and I offered my arm to Erin which she happily linked with hers. We walked talking about the small things that make life better, the area was quieter now as it was starting to go dark. We got the elevator up to the floor our rooms were on. I walked Erin to her room and leant down and kissed her cheek like I did last night and I saw she was blushing and I grinned at her adorableness. I walked back to my room and let myself in. Phil was lying on his bed in his pyjamas with his glasses on his MacBook.

"You were gone a while." Phil smirked

"Yeah. Erin told me that you were there for her when she harmed herself." I said.

"Yeah she was in a bad place and I did what any good person would do." Phil said.

"I'm sorry I don't open up to you." I said looking down.

"It's fine, I understand. " Phil said. "Do you remember that advice I gave you ages ago?" Phil asked.

"Yeah, I was thinking about it before and I'm going to tell her how I feel because if there's one thing worse than telling her its not telling her." I said. "Does that make any sense?"

"Yeah I know what you mean." Phil said.

I got changed into black skinny jeans (surprise) and a shirt and jacket : http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/img-thing?.out=jpg&size=l&tid=109538978

Then we went to find the others but for me, one person in particular...
